What's included in Okta

Okta Advanced Server AccessOkta Advanced Server Access (ASA) is an identity-centric, Zero Trust server access management solution that extends Okta's core Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform to Linux and Windows servers across any hybrid or multi-cloud infrastructure. Rather than relying on traditional static SSH keys and RDP passwords — which are inherently risky and difficult to manage at scale — Okta ASA replaces them with a client certificate-backed architecture that mints ephemeral, single-use credentials scoped tightly to a specific user, device, and point-in-time request. At its core, Okta ASA brings identity to the server layer by creating a unified control plane backed by the Okta Identity Cloud. This means that all server users, groups, and access policies are managed from a single directory, giving IT and security teams centralized visibility and control across on-premises data centers, AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform — without vendor lock-in or the need to manage separate authentication systems per cloud provider. When a user needs to access a server, they log in directly from their existing local SSH or RDP client. Okta authenticates the user and device, then authorizes the request against the associated role-based access controls (RBAC) and access policies. A built-in Certificate Authority (CA) mints a short-lived client certificate scoped to that individual request and delivers it back to the client. The client uses this certificate to initiate a secure SSH or RDP session with the target server. The login event is then captured via the Advanced Server Access agent and sent to the audit log or a third-party SIEM service. This Just-in-Time (JIT) approach eliminates credential sprawl by ensuring that no static keys or shared accounts persist. Each certificate expires immediately after the session, dramatically minimizing the attack surface and removing the risk of stolen or leaked credentials. Okta ASA is designed for the dynamic nature of modern cloud infrastructure. As servers spin up and down in elastic environments, ASA automates the onboarding and offboarding of server admin users — provisioning and deprovisioning local server accounts and group policies automatically, with Okta as the source of truth. This removes manual security checkpoints and human error from the lifecycle management process. For DevOps and infrastructure teams, ASA integrates seamlessly with popular configuration management and infrastructure automation tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Chef, Puppet, and AWS CloudFormation, enabling server enrollment to be baked directly into existing automation pipelines. Every component and configuration is also exposed as an API, allowing teams to scale access controls across thousands of servers programmatically. From a compliance perspective, Okta ASA provides a centralized, searchable audit trail of every server login and command execution, supporting regulatory standards such as PCI-DSS, SOC2, and FedRAMP. Audit logs can be viewed via dashboard, accessed through an API, integrated with downstream SIEM solutions, or delivered to a customer-controlled storage location. Delivered as a SaaS product, Okta ASA abstracts the complexities of credential management, privileged user management, and PKI infrastructure, making it accessible even for large-scale deployments. It works inline with existing SSH and RDP protocols and tools, requiring no changes to end-user workflows — only adding stronger security controls behind the scenes. Pricing starts at $15 per user, per month.

Okta Identity GovernanceOkta Identity Governance (OIG) is a SaaS-delivered, unified Identity and Access Management (IAM) and governance solution built natively on the Okta Identity platform. It is designed to help enterprises improve their security posture, mitigate modern identity risks, streamline compliance, and drive organizational efficiency — all from a single, centralized platform. Unlike traditional, point-in-time IGA tools that govern access reactively, Okta Identity Governance takes a proactive approach: enforcing least privilege before a breach occurs, surfacing risk in real time rather than in quarterly audits, and governing every identity — human and AI — from the same platform already running an organization's identity infrastructure. At its core, OIG addresses the fundamental governance questions every organization must answer: Who has access to what? When did they get it? How did they get it? And should they continue to have it? It does so by unifying access management and identity governance to eliminate identity silos, prevent privilege creep, and provide a single source of truth for all access decisions. Key capabilities include Okta Access Requests, which simplifies and automates the process of requesting and approving access to applications and resources through a self-service portal tightly integrated with collaboration tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams. Employees can request access to specific applications or high-privilege groups, and Okta automatically routes the request to the correct approver, maintaining a complete, auditable record of the approval process. Okta Access Certifications enables administrators to schedule periodic or event-driven access review campaigns. Managers receive automated notifications to review and confirm the permissions of their team members, preventing privilege creep and providing documented evidence for auditors. Certifications can be enriched with contextual signals such as last-use data, risk signals, and manager insights, and support bulk actions and automated remediation. Entitlement Management provides fine-grained control over what a user can actually do within an application — for example, distinguishing between "Admin" and "Viewer" roles in Salesforce. OIG manages these entitlements as part of the unified user profile, ensuring that when an employee's role changes, their specific permissions within downstream applications are automatically updated or revoked. Separation of Duties (SoD) enforcement helps ensure that users do not accumulate conflicting access permissions that could introduce security risks or compliance violations, preventing fraud and reducing the risk of insider threats. The Governance Analyzer provides AI-powered recommendations and unified risk signals to help decision-makers make better, faster governance decisions. Security Access Reviews — a cross-platform feature connecting Identity Threat Protection (ITP) with OIG — automatically trigger targeted, user-centric reviews the moment a risk signal emerges, enabling surgical threat containment without disrupting business continuity. OIG also delivers Enhanced Governance Reports with out-of-the-box, queryable reporting capabilities that help compliance teams answer critical audit questions about who has access to what resources, how they got access, and when access was last certified. This supports compliance with frameworks and regulations including SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, and federal mandates. Lifecycle Management automation — powered by Okta Lifecycle Management and Okta Workflows — automates the joiner, mover, and leaver processes across cloud and on-premises resources, integrating deeply with HRIS and ITSM systems to reduce administrative burden and security risk. Provisioning is supported through over 700 SCIM integrations in the Okta Integration Network, a generic SCIM connector, on-premises connectors for systems like SAP NetWeaver and Oracle EBS, and API Integration Actions for custom web-accessible resources. OIG is FedRAMP High authorized for government customers, and a Forrester Total Economic Impact study found it can deliver 211% ROI over three years, with customers achieving payback in under six months.

Okta Lifecycle ManagementOkta Lifecycle Management (LCM) is a cloud-first identity lifecycle automation product designed to help organizations improve their security posture, streamline IT processes, and increase workforce productivity. It automates the entire joiner, mover, and leaver (JML) process by connecting HR systems to IT infrastructure, ensuring that employees, contractors, and partners have the right access to the right resources at every stage of their tenure — from day one to departure. At its core, Okta Lifecycle Management eliminates the manual, error-prone work that IT teams traditionally perform when onboarding, transitioning, or offboarding users. When a new hire is added to an HR system, Okta automatically creates accounts across all required applications. When an employee changes roles, old permissions are instantly revoked and new ones are granted. When someone leaves the organization, access is removed immediately — reducing security gaps and reclaiming unused software licenses. The product uses HR systems such as Workday, BambooHR, SAP SuccessFactors, Namely, and UltiPro as authoritative sources of truth. Through its HR-as-a-Source (HRaaS) capability, Okta ingests identity data and lifecycle events in real time and propagates changes across all downstream SaaS and on-premises applications automatically. For organizations with non-standard identity sources, the Anything-as-a-Source (XaaS) API framework allows importing identities and attributes from any system of record. Okta Lifecycle Management is powered by the Okta Integration Network (OIN), which provides hundreds of SCIM-enabled, pre-built integrations for sourcing and provisioning across thousands of applications — including Slack, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Microsoft Office 365, Box, and more. IT admins no longer need to manually create or deactivate accounts in each application; Okta handles account creation, updates, and deactivation instantly. The product's Universal Directory serves as a lifecycle-aware identity store, collecting user attributes — such as job title, department, and group memberships — from multiple authoritative sources including Active Directory, LDAP, HR systems, and CRM platforms. Users can be staged, activated, suspended, deactivated, or deleted based on lifecycle state change events, giving IT teams granular control over the entire identity lifecycle. Group Membership Rules allow administrators to automatically assign users to groups based on attributes such as position, department, or geography, which in turn entitles those users to specific sets of applications and permissions. This attribute-based access control reduces manual group management and ensures consistent, policy-driven access. For organizations with on-premises applications, the On-Prem Provisioning Agent extends Okta's provisioning capabilities behind corporate firewalls, supporting the SCIM 2.0 standard. Prescriptive Lifecycle Orchestration provides sophisticated control through rules, policies, and APIs, enabling full customization of identity workflows. Okta Lifecycle Management also includes a no-code automation layer — Lifecycle Management Workflows — which provides a graphical drag-and-drop interface for building complex "if-this-then-that" identity flows. This enables IT admins to automate granular onboarding and offboarding tasks, resolve identity creation conflicts, define time- or role-based access processes, and distill identity insights — all without writing code. Out-of-the-box compliance reporting gives administrators visibility into which users can access which applications, which apps a given user can access, and which users have been recently deprovisioned. Reports can be filtered by date, application, or user, and data can be extracted programmatically via APIs for use in external auditing tools. Okta Lifecycle Management serves as a foundational step toward comprehensive identity governance, and integrates seamlessly with Okta Identity Governance for organizations that require access certifications, entitlement management, separation of duties, and access request workflows.

Okta WorkflowsOkta Workflows is a no-code identity automation and orchestration platform built by Okta. It enables IT teams, security professionals, and business users to automate complex, identity-centric processes at scale — without writing custom code or scripts. By replacing manual tasks and error-prone scripts with visual, drag-and-drop flow builders, Okta Workflows dramatically reduces operational overhead and accelerates time to value. At its core, Okta Workflows uses an if-this-then-that logic model, where flows are constructed from a series of "cards." Each card represents a discrete step: either an app action card (a pre-built connector that interacts with a third-party application or service via API) or a function card (which manipulates, filters, or transforms data within the flow). Flows can be triggered by events in Okta or connected external applications, on a defined schedule, via an API endpoint call, or manually — giving teams full flexibility over when and how automation runs. Key use cases span the entire identity lifecycle. For lifecycle management, Okta Workflows automates employee onboarding and offboarding, manages complex group memberships, resolves identity creation conflicts, and handles joiner-mover-leaver (JML) processes across multiple applications simultaneously. For IT operations, it identifies inactive users, generates scheduled audit reports, and automates account provisioning and deprovisioning. For security, it enables rapid response to suspicious activity — locking user devices upon offboarding, revoking sessions across platforms like Zoom, Google Workspace, and Microsoft Office 365, quarantining compromised accounts, and sending real-time alerts via PagerDuty or Slack. Okta Workflows ships with an extensive library of pre-built connectors (80+) to popular enterprise applications, as well as a growing template library with 90+ out-of-the-box solutions for common use cases. For scenarios where no pre-built connector exists, the platform includes a no-code Connector Builder tool that allows teams to create custom connectors for any application with a public-facing API. An API Connector function card also allows direct calls to any REST API endpoint without building a full connector. Advanced observability features include Execution Log Streaming — which transmits real-time flow execution logs to SIEM or log-parsing tools of choice — and the Execution History Inspector, which provides granular, in-product visibility into individual flow executions, performance metrics, and throttling events. These capabilities support proactive monitoring, long-term audit trails, and compliance requirements. Okta Workflows also supports low-latency mode for time-sensitive use cases such as inline hooks during authentication, token enrichment, and SAML assertion customization. OAuth Scopes Customization allows automation builders to limit connector permissions to only the scopes required for a specific use case, reducing the risk of overly permissive connections. The platform is available as a standalone offering for all Okta customers, with a no-cost option for up to five flows and tiered plans (Light, Medium, and Unlimited) for larger-scale usage. It integrates natively with other Okta products including Lifecycle Management, Single Sign-On, Identity Governance, and Okta Customer Identity Cloud (Auth0). According to Okta, customers using Workflows have collectively saved approximately $6.5 billion and 160 million hours in operational efficiencies.

"Efficient Multi-Factor Authentication with Minor Latency Issues"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Okta?

I like how Okta offers multiple ways of authentication, such as mobile, email, and text, which I use for the apps in the bank, minimizing the chance of all apps getting blocked. Okta also has a larger network and provides a single click setup, making it easier compared to our previous solution, PingID, which had a more complex setup. I appreciate the "pane of glass" feature that allows end users to access all their apps easily. The setup was quick, taking less than a day, which was a big plus for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

Sometimes when we connect to different mainframe server centers, Okta takes significantly more time to authenticate, even though those servers have decent bandwidth. It would be great to use infrastructure as code to update new data center IP subnets to avoid manual UI changes and to insert Okta Access Gateway without breaking front-facing URLs.

"Streamlined, Reliable Identity Management with an Easy-to-Use UI"

4/5

What do you like best about Okta?

Okta provides excellent streamline and organizational services to track, monitor, secure and streamline identities within an organization. UI is easy to use and integrates easily with thousands of common applications like Google or Stripe. It also can integrate with custom built application - I build a dashboard for the organization that's authentication and authorization are managed via Okta. Downtime has been non-existent for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

The learning curve has been pretty steep. I took their courses and became certified in Okta systems and I still struggle with going to the right place and making the right changes. There's a lot of hidden nuances that if you're not trained in IAM management and IT Networking/Sec then it's easy to miss a required change for things to work. We utilize the Okta for Good program, so I can't comment on price much but we initially added on the Device Access but between me another IT tech, we couldn't figure out how to get it working so we eventually just dropped the extra.

"Seamless, Secure Single Sign-On That Speeds Up My Workday"

5/5

What do you like best about Okta?

What I like best about Okta is how simple and seamless it makes accessing the different tools I use throughout my workday. Having a centralized and secure way to sign in reduces the friction of managing multiple accounts and credentials, especially when working across several analytics and collaboration platforms.

The single sign-on experience is straightforward and reliable, and I appreciate that it provides an additional layer of security without making the login process feel overly complicated. Overall, it makes accessing the tools I need faster and more convenient while still maintaining strong security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

One thing I dislike about Okta is that the authentication process can occasionally feel repetitive, especially when I’m asked to verify my identity multiple times throughout the day or when switching between different tools. While I understand that these steps are important for security, they can sometimes interrupt the workflow.

It would be helpful if the experience were a little more seamless while maintaining the same level of security. Overall, though, this is a relatively minor inconvenience compared to the convenience and security Okta provides Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Okta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Okta solves the challenge of securely managing access to multiple tools and applications without requiring users to keep track of separate credentials for each one. For me, the biggest benefit is having a centralized and consistent way to access the platforms I use every day.

It saves time, reduces login-related friction, and makes switching between different tools much easier. At the same time, features like multi-factor authentication provide confidence that access to company systems and data is well protected. Overall, Okta helps make secure access feel like a natural part of the workflow rather than an additional task Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong Security Without Sacrificing User Experience"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Okta?

What I like best about Okta is how it makes security feel simple rather than complicated. In a fast-paced organization like iQor, employees need quick and reliable access to the tools they use every day, and Okta delivers that without sacrificing security. The single sign-on experience has been a major benefit, reducing password fatigue and minimizing the number of access-related support requests. From a leadership perspective, it's reassuring to know that strong security measures such as multi-factor authentication are working in the background while employees can stay focused on serving clients and driving business results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

If I had to point out one drawback, it would be that Okta can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming when you're dealing with more advanced configurations or complex integrations. While the platform is very powerful, there are occasions when troubleshooting access issues requires digging through multiple settings and logs, which can be time-consuming. I also think the user interface for some administrative tasks could be more intuitive. New administrators may need some time to become fully comfortable navigating all the features and policies available within the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Okta solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the biggest challenges for any organization is making sure employees can easily access the tools they need while keeping company and customer data secure. Okta has helped us address both. It has simplified how we manage user access across multiple applications, eliminating a lot of the frustration that comes with forgotten passwords, login issues, and manual access requests.

"Effortless Security and Convenience with Okta"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Okta?

I like that I can essentially sign in to all of my business applications from a single place, which makes single sign-on very easy, secure, and fast. I enjoy using Okta Verify on my laptop with fingerprint authentication and on my mobile phone, making authentication quick and convenient. The Okta Verify tool is the most useful for me because it maintains security protocols like automated logouts for business applications. The initial setup was also very easy, with new users being up and running within minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

I think the Okta integration to Salesforce could be a little bit stronger to allow for a more enhanced onboarding experience for new customers. The current setup with custom permission sets, managed permission sets, and package licenses bundled together seems to be a limitation for Okta. It would be great if that became a more prominent feature within the tool, especially for large customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Okta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Okta solves secure access and permission management challenges, streamlining user onboarding and application access changes. It provides a convenient single sign-on experience with quick authentication through fingerprint or mobile verification, ensuring secure and fast access to all business applications.

"Easy, Secure One-Stop Access to All Your Apps, Secure, Scalable User Access"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Okta?

Its a great aggregator of all your apps. Its very easy to access everything at one place. I use it daily. It also goes thru 2-3 layers of secured access which is important for the safety of my data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Okta?

Steep learning curve for advanced features – While the core UI is intuitive, unlocking the full power of Okta (e.g., custom policies, API integrations, and advanced SSO flows) requires diving into dense documentation and a steep configuration process that can be frustrating for new administrators.

Limited native reporting flexibility – Okta’s built‑in reporting is useful for basic audits, but it lacks granular, export‑ready dashboards. Customizing metrics or pulling detailed logs often forces users to rely on third‑party tools or export data manually, which slows down compliance and troubleshooting efforts.
